The pow() function in p5.js is used to calculate the power of a number to the given number. It is an efficient way of multiplying numbers by themselves (or their reciprocals) in large quantities. Syntax

pow( n, e )

Parameters: The function accepts two parameters as mentioned above and described below:

n: This parameter stores the base of the exponential expression.

e: This parameter stores the power by which to raise the base.

Below program illustrates the pow() function in p5.js: Example: This example uses pow() function to calculate power of a number.

javascript

function setup() {

    // Create Canvas of size 270*80  
    createCanvas(350, 80);
}
 
function draw() {
    
    // Set the background color
    background(220);
    
    // Initialize the parameter  
    let n = 3;
    let e = 4;
    
    // Call to pow() function
    let y = pow(n, e);
    
    // Set the size of text
    textSize(16);
    
    // Set the text color
    fill(color('red'));
    
    text("Given number is " + n + " and exponent is " 
            +  e + " ", 50, 30);
    text("Computed Number is : " + y, 50, 50);
}

Output:
